Abtastic actor and Hollywood "it-boy" Nick Cannon covers the Giant's July "Power Issue". The 28-year-old actor slash comedian slash producer is now a mogul, recently named honorary chair of Nickelodeon’s teen division and a consultant to its TEENick network. The profile by Ben Detrick says Cannon has his fingertips on the pulse of the tweens and Twitter crowd (@NickCannon) and is "perfectly positioned to mold the minds of America's pliable youth."

Cannon makes Number 17 in the magazine's list of "50 Influential People", which is topped by President Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey and Beyonce Knowles.

Giant, incidentally, is edited by Emil Wilbekin, the out former editor of the now-shuttered Vibe.

Louis Smith is killing it in the Gucci suit and Burberry shirt. Tom Ford would definitely approve. And below the 19-year-old pommel hotness models Jil Sander, known for her minimalist style and neutral colors which are perfect for Smith. Those shoes are probably not regulation but hey ...

Smith was Great Britain's first individual Olympic medalist in 100 years and only the second black male gymnast to win an Olympic medal. OSM reports, "[Smith] hopes to one day invent his own move on the pommels, to see his very
British surname alongside the Kehrswings and Tong Feis. "The Smith.
Yeah, it would be pretty cool. Put my name on a lasting legacy and put
it in the book of history. It would have to be unique, and very
difficult."

This shot captures Louis Smith in mid-air and is our favorite. Those are the Gucci slacks and a Dries van Noten V-neck sweater. Look at that movement. And the body. Work it out, Lou.
